We had missed the Safari Zoo Run the past few years due to missed registration deadlines or family commitments. So we are super excited to be able to participate in the Safari Zoo Run this year!!
One of the most popular running events among families in Singapore, the annual Safari Zoo Run originally conceived to commemorate Ah Meng the Sumatran orang utan who was also Singapore Zoo’s famous matriarch and one of the nation’s most loved animal personalities. Ah Meng died of old age in February 2008.
The objectives of Safari Zoo Run are to encourage family bonding and raise awareness on wildlife conservation. A portion of the proceeds from this year’s race will go towards aiding the conservation efforts of Singapore Zoo and Wildlife Reserves Singapore. Here are the race details:
